Exclusively sourced from China’s rich floral ecosystem, we have looked at plants known for their benefits in traditional Chinese medicine and skin application.  We have used the gentlest extraction procedure to obtain our plant extracts. Water infusion followed by vacuum concentration allowed us to maintain the physicochemical properties of the active molecules in our extracts while concentrating them to increase their efficacy once applied in cosmetic formulations and delivered to the skin. Readily soluble in water, the extracts can be used at optimal concentrations of 1-3% in finished products (within an optimal pH of 4-6).
